Chris Haise Band - I Really Only Borrow

All those things people say
About the gone and good old days
Just another fancy way
To show they got regrets
A life that passed them by
The hopes that all ran dry
You know time is the reason why
Only helps you to forget
Everybody's wondering if this old world's been outgrown
Someday I'll get the answer, I still won't really know
I can look for better questions, sometimes it's how it goes
All I'm saving, I really only borrowed
Did I get myself misled
Get permission to leave my bed
Can't lead, can't get ahead
I hope I like where I am now
Still things I wanna see
Got an alert so I can't leave
Fleeting dreams of being free
Are all this world will allow
Everybody's wondering if this old world's been outgrown
Someday I'll get the answer, I still won't really know
I can look for better questions, sometimes it's how it goes
All I'm saving, I really only borrowed
And I don't have the space for the lessons I've acquired
So I hold on to things I knew before
My shame don't seem to burn only tempered by the fire
Made stronger when the rain begins to pour
In the dark it's all okay
But night turns into day
It knows no other way
Than keeping me on edge
Everybody's wondering if this old world's been out grown
Someday I'll get the answer, I still won't really know
I can look for better questions, sometimes it's how it goes
All I'm saving, I really only borrowed
